Why do so many of us get nervous when public speaking? Communication expert Lawrence Bernstein says the key to dealing with the pressure is as simple as having a casual chat. He introduces the "coffee shop test" as a way to help you overcome nerves, connect with your audience and deliver a message that truly resonates. After the talk, Modupe explains a similar approach in academia called the "Grandma test," and how public speaking can be as simple as a conversation with grandma.

The lack of qualified cybersecurity professionals in the United States is a threat to our national security. We cannot adequately protect the systems that our government, economy, and critical infrastructure sectors rely on without an appropriately sized cyber workforce. By some estimates, there are over 700,000 cybersecurity job openings across the United States, with 39,000 of those in the public sector alone. Fortunately, the federal government recognizes that the cyber workforce needs to be strengthened and is implementing efforts to address this need at a national strategic level.

In this webcast, we will examine how to use principles and concepts from Agile development to help cyber workforce development initiatives remain adaptable and effective in the continuously evolving landscape of the cyber domain.

56:25

Can a cybersecurity parametric cost estimation model be developed? Every Department of Defense (DoD) program needs to account for, credibly estimate, budget/plan for, and assess the performance of its cybersecurity activities. Creating a cybersecurity parametric model would allow DoD programs to reliably estimate the effort and cost of cybersecurity activities, estimate an overall cybersecurity cost for a program, and obtain a defined and normalized set of cybersecurity data. In this webcast, Christopher Miller shares insights from a Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute study on cybersecurity cost estimating that can help national security organizations successfully deploy parametric cost modeling. What Attendees Will Learn: • a proposed work breakdown structure identifying cybersecurity-related activities and cost items, and existing descriptions of secure coding practices and levels of rigor for those practices based on data availability • an approach to develop a cybersecurity parametric cost model • a methodology to develop the cost model…

Independent Verification and Validation for Agile Projects 1:02:23

33 weeks پیش1:02:23

1:02:23

Traditionally, independent verification and validation (IV&V) is performed by an independent team throughout a program’s milestones or once the software is formally delivered. This approach allows the IV&V team to provide input at the various milestone gates. As more programs move to an Agile approach, those milestones aren’t as clearly defined since requirements, design, implementation, and testing all happen iteratively, sometimes over years of development. In this new paradigm, IV&V teams are struggling to figure out how to add value to the program earlier in the lifecycle by getting in phase with development. This webcast will highlight a novel approach to providing IV&V for projects using an Agile or iterative software development. What Attendees Will Learn: What adopting an Agile mindset for IV&V could look like How focusing on capabilities and using a risk-based perspective could help drive planning for your team Techniques to help the IV&V team get more in phase with the developer while remaining independent…
